This is probably a "duh" situation where I plugged or didnt plug something in correctly. Kind of embarrassed to ask

I installed a remote battery onto my AFM's cpu. Unsoldered the battery holder. Soldered the positive terminal to the top right and negative terminal to the bottom left where the old holder was.

Re-installed the cpu and the factory settings message comes up but I can’t seem to get into the menu system anymore. Rechecked that I connected everything but the coin door menu buttons no longer work.

Thanks,
Mike

I will check tonight after work. I thought I might have forgot which plug to use since they are keyed alike.

Thanks Herg!

Just checked the switches for J205 and everything is as where it should per the manual. Still can get into the menu from the coindoor switches.

This is correct. No operator buttons are working. Per your post, I'll check everything out tonight or this weekend. I'm just wondering what could have happened since I'm usually very careful when handling boards. Maybe one of the connectors at the coin door board is the culprit which I'll check also.

Thanks again for the response Herg!

Thanks Mark! We'll do.

Checked all the chips and pins for any acid damage again as the direct switches are the first affected by this. Everything looked clean.

I removed J205 and used a jumper from ground to the MPU connectors. When this activated the menu I knew I didn’t have a board problem. I checked the coin door again and noticed the black wire on the coin switch was completely off and the orange was hanging by a thread. I re stripped and tinned the wire soldering them back to the switch.

I cant believe I missed this but it was a learning experience as always.

Fixed - Thanks to all your help guys.
